Black, black black, is the color of my true love's hair
His lips are something wondrous fair
The purest eyes and the neatest hands
I love the ground whereon he stands
I go to the Clyde for to mourn and weep
But satisfied I never can sleep
I'll write to you in a few short lines
I'll suffer death ten thousand times
I know my love and well he knows
I love the grass whereon he goes
If him on earth no more I see
My life will quickly fade away
A winter's past and the leaves are green
The time has past that we have seen
But still I hope the time will come
When you and I will be as one
